“Great location.”2

'I have stayed in many bed and breakfasts and this one looked great on the web site.
However the welcome was warm and friendly but the house was tired but and very sad and tired looking. The room was quite shabby the beds were spotless clean however the bases were grubby and the carpets needed a good clean, the breakfast cheeses look like they had been In the cabinet for days no facility to toast gluten free toast so had to have very chilled dry gluten bread for breakfast so opted for fruit. Sorry far from the best places i have stayed i. But location was excellent for the centre of town.'

'Greyfriars Lodge was a very convenient place to stay in Canterbury. The room was small and although there was an ensuite it was very small. The shower was poor. The lodge was clean and we had a simple continental breakfast which was ideal betore we left.'

“Two-night stay in Greyfriars Lodge”2

'Disappointing;unfriendly welcome with poor directions to paying car park which we then took ages to find. The receptionist was clearly keen to get rid of us and knock off early! The bathroom could do with repairs and a better hot/cold distribution of water in the bath/shower. Fortunately the bedroom was a good large size.I certainly won\'t be going there again!
Surly, unfriendly waiter at breakfast.'

'Easy check in and comfy room for our one night stay in Canterbury. 4 of us shared a family room and with breakfast included it was very good value. The room was a little on the warm side and the shower was tricky to get to a good temperature but all in all a pleasant stay.'

'Travelling up from from Gosport Hampshire to see our daughter perform at the Marlowe Theatre. Greyfriars Lodge was the ideal location and only a 5 minute walk to the Marlowe . Comfortable stay and a lovely welcome . Many thanks'

'We really enjoyed our short stay in Greyfriars lodge, we would definitely come back. The room was clean and the location was perfect.'

“Small but Excellent”5

'We loved to explore Canterbury by foot and Greyfriars Lodge is situated ideally to do just that. We very much appreciated the warm and welcoming attitude of the General Manager Mary who provided us with a packed breakfast so we could catch the earliest ferry at Dover. Not our last stay for sure ;)'

'I was extremely well welcomed by the host\'s assistant whose first day it was !
The house is very cosy, the bed extremely confortable.
2 notable points that are good to know : our shower was tiny + our room was nearby a popular club in Canterbury so expect noise and music until 2. However I really appreciated the offer of earplugs :)
Good breakfast and PERFECT location.
Thanks again!'

'I stayed here for 6 Days and have stayed here on my previous visits as well. The property is very centrally located and easy to access . The rooms are very comfortable (although the toilets a bit cramped) the staff was friendly. The breakfast needs a bit of variety( 6 days of same food got a bit boring) Internet didn’t work too well, but staff rectified it. All in all good stay and would definitely stay again! Have already booked them for my next visit.'

'Dear Pietro, many thanks again for taking the time to write a second review. We really appreciate your feedback and it makes us enjoying our job even better! I noticed you were staying in room 3 - Standard double room - which has indeed a very small bathroom. Our Deluxe rooms feature larger bathroom, I would be very happy to upgrade you in one of those for your next stay at the Greyfriars Lodge. Kind regards, Mary'

“Perfect location!”4

'Perfect location! We stayed in a 4 bed room. It was big with comfortable beds. The staff is very friendly and accommodating. The breakfast was beyond expectation with homemade sugar cake. We vill be happy to return.'

'Efficient and pleasant staff, had everything we required,although a bit old and tired looking, but was clean.Continental breakfast self service no fuss plenty of choice.noisy position but it tells you that on the website, as very close to shops and bars.'

'The Greyfriars Lodge is ideally set in the heart of Canterbury, a short distance to the high street. We found the Lodge friendly and has historic value and the rooms were big enough for a huge bed plus the normal associated with a room. We had a relaxing and enjoyable break.'

“Two days in Canterbury”4

'We enjoyed the large familyroom with a refrigerator that could keep our drinks cold. The temperature was rising up to 30 degrees C.
(And because of the hot weather) this room lacked a good working shower. There was only a bath.
The landlady placed a fan in the room which was very attentive.
Breakfast is very good, a wide selection.'

'Very accommodating and friendly staff and an excellent location out balance the fact that the interior could do with a little renovation, particularly the bathrooms. That said, we were very happy with our stay while passing through Canterbury and felt the good price fairly reflected the fact that hotel interior is a bit old. Especially the staff made it memorable, very helpful and warm-hearted.'

'This small guest house is right in the centre of Canterbury within easy walking distance of all the main sights and also both train stations. Our room was clean, spacious and well equipped. The buffet-style continental breakfast had a wide range of things to choose from along with a fresh cafetiere of coffee. All this at a very reasonable price.

“Exceptionally good”5

'Had a really pleasant stay. While the rooms are a little bit old fashioned they are clean and comfortable. The service is excellent staff very helpfull. The breafast is one of the best i ve had. With a lot of choices of all a brand products, scones, toast, pancakes, muffins, bagels, porridge, tea, coffee, orange juice, cheeses, ham, fruits etc. Defenitely will come back'

'We took the last remaining room, a 4 person room. It was well-appointed, with good quality linen, plenty of coffee/tea/biscuits/etc, reasonably comfortable bed and a reasonable size bathroom. The room was quiet as far as hotel noise was concerned, with some low level Saturday night noise from outside, but not as much as we had feared, given the hotel\'s central city location.
Breakfast - a real feast. Continental only, but there was absolutely everything one could have wanted, and more. Good quality cafetiere coffee.
The two staff we saw were delightfully helpful. All in all, nothing really to fault, but plenty to praise.'

'Stayed overnight when attending Uni Open Day with my daughter. Only downside to be so central was thumpy music in the distance till 2am, but it was a Saturday night. Nice helpful staff, continental breakfast adequate. Single beds had nice bedding but mattresses desperately need replacing! Free Wifi which was welcomed by my daughter. Would stay again if she goes to the Uni, but ask for different bed if possible. Reasonable rate for what was on offer and good location. No parking but we used the Sturry Road Park & Ride.'

'Good central location
Clean, comfortable room and very pleasant staff who were most welcoming.
There was some noise from the pubs and clubs on Saturday night but had already been given advance warning of this so wasn\'t an issue for me although may be for others.'

'its a lovely place to stay the room was great apart from size of the bathroom and the noise from the pub opposite on the Saturday night.The staff were very good,breakfast was very good plenty of food. Car parking is a bit strange could do with being closer.'

“Great central location with really friendly staff”4

'Booked a family room ahead of taking our son to the university so we had lots of big bags. The staff were brilliant as soon as we arrived helping us with parking and carrying nearly all of our bags up to our room. The room itself was spacious with a huge double bed & 2 singles. The small fridge in the room and tea fascilities were welcome. The hotel is right in the centre of centre of Canterbury, great for site seeing in this beautiful city. There was a good choice for breakfast & this set us up for our day. If there is just one thing that would have improved our stay it would have been having a shower rather than bath with shower attachment. (That\'s the only reason I have given 4 stars not 5) But for our one night, this hotel provided us with what we wanted.'

Room and bath real Small but breakfast good - a look to choose from.'

'We stayed one night here over the weekend. The staff were very friendly and helpful, room was clean and the bed was very comfortable. It is quite noisy at night (there must be a nightclub across the road), though they do give you ear plugs so this helps a little bit.
The bathroom seemed to smell of sewage at times, which wasn\'t particularly pleasant, and the bathroom fan is very noisy and stays on for a long time.
Overall not bad for one night, but could be better.'

“Good, but...”3

'The location is excellent for Canterbury centre. The staff are very friendly and efficient and the breakfast had an excellent choice. The room, though, looked a bit \"tired\" and the bathroom definitely needed modernising. The bathwater only trickled out and was either scolding or bitterly cold. That apart, we were made to feel very welcome. They also offer a good parking rate at a nearby public car park for 24 hours which is a big plus.'

'Lovely couple of days in Canterbury . Fantastic location for the town . Comfortable room . A bit of early morning noise but that goes with staying in the middle of the town!. Breakfast ok but all the cereal selection could be better... It all had sugar added to them ...no weetabix ,shred dies . No prepared fruit . The staff were exceptional .would definitely stay again'

'We stayed in the bottom front room after a night out at the Ken Beer Festival. Great location, nice room and basic, but good breakfast. Excellent budget accommodation. The location did mean it was noisy both late at night and early in the morning. There is double glazing though - which we did not notice was open when we went to bed - closing it may well have helped! Would recommend,'

“Mid June \'16”3

'We had room.no.1 which was cozy and quiet, which reflects the ideal centralised location. The room was noisy, however, from constant internal floor creeking from surrounding rooms. The window catches are broken, resulting in having to lock them at night for security purposes which leaves the room hot and airless. The continental breakfast choices were good, with plentiful stock...tho the coffee quality was questionable. Overall, comfortable enough...but on reflection, overpriced for the experience.'

'Excellent Stay, friendly helpful staff, high standard of decor, right in the middle of town.

Breakfast is continental with such a varied choice to suit all tastes.

'Very central and convenient. The staff are great, the rooms are clean and the breakfast very good although would have prefered to have cooked breakfast option. It can get a bit noisy at night time, but nothing to worry about really. All in all it deverves a 5 star rating!'

'Couldn\'t have hoped for a better location! 2 minutes walk to High Street was ideal as we had friends staying close by.
Staff were lovely- really helpful and accommodating.
Twin room was a really good size and comfortable. It was quite noisy at night as opposite a bar but that didn\'t bother us at all!
Breakfast was also very nice with unlimited cereal, breads, pastries, jam, cheese and cookies!!'

'Enjoyed my stay here as it is VERY well positioned to the sites and sounds of Canterbury. Staff was very friendly. The only thing I would suggest is for them to try and source a car park that is a little closer to the actual hotel.'

“One night in twin room”4

'I would love to give this little B&B 5 stars and I fear the only reason I can\'t is out of their control. The B&B itself is easy to find on a side street off of the main highstreet, simply ring for assistance and someone appears. The staff were extremely helpful and very courteous. The rooms themselves were old style with modern comforts and effort has been made to keep them up to date (alarm clock radio with idpod dock, wifi, freeview TV etc) and the bathroom very clean. The only trouble I had (when staying on a Sunday night) was wholly due to the proximity of the night clubs etc in the town the music was loud and made it difficult to get to sleep. The room was a little pricey (85 pounds for a twin room) which is equivalent to some high star hotels but what you pay for is the convenience of being right in the centre 10 minute walk from a major train station.
I will definitely stay there again.'

Wanted somewhere central and not too expensive and found the Greyfriars Lodge which seemed to fit the bill - and it did. My room was small but had all I needed and definitely had character. Ownen did warn me about the possible street noise and even provided earplugs (but I had my own). In spite of this did get a good night\'s sleep and then enjoyed the continental breakfast'

'Had an excellent weekend using this hotel. It\'s in a prime location and this Grade II listed building has lots of character; don\'t expect modern furnishings akin to premier inn etc, expect wooden beamed ceilings and a creaky floor board here and there.

“a great nights sleep and an excellent breakfast ”5

'Upon arrival we were a little concerned, the outside looked run down and was practically opposite a nightclub with another bar on the corner. However once inside we had a warm welcome, the room was lovely and we were given earplugs, the beds were comfortable and we both slept alot better than expected. Breakfast was amazing, a huge continental selection which was perfect for us before the long drive home. When parking we paid £10 for all night until 7am but were told when we got there that we could\'ve brought a permit from them for £6 until 10am so anyone going just pay an hour then go get a permit from the hotel!! Very impressed with the hotel, the staff and the breakfast 😊'

'The staff at Greyfriars are outstandingly good.They made up our room early to allow us to change and attend a wedding.They all were most helpful and attentive throughout our stay. The bed was large and comfortable. The free continental breakfast was first class. However the bathroom facilities were a joke.A caravan would offer more room. The wash basin was smaller than a pudding dish and the kettle was too big to go under the tap.Sadly a disco opposite the hotel meant sleep before 3am was not possible.'

“Greyfriars House”5

'A Little Gem, delightful Bed & Breakfast offering a warm welcome off the High Street; historic building full of character. Lara made us feel at home.'

'As a solo traveller, location ranks high on my criteria and this hotel is centrally located close to all the major attractions and within walking distance of both train stations. There is a pub across the street, so there\'s the potential for it to be noisy at night, but I didn\'t really notice it. The staff were friendly, but my one major complaint would be that everything in the room (except the bed) was too small. I booked pretty late, so ended up with a double bed, but it took up so much room that there was barely any space to move around. I didn\'t even use the far side of the bed because the only access would have been over the top of the bed. The sink in the ensuite bathroom was tiny. In fact, it was so small that the kettle wouldn\'t fit. I had to fill the kettle from the shower! There was a nightstand for me to work on my laptop, but it was so small as to be barely usable for this. If you just need a bed and a roof, this is a good choice, but be sure to travel light.'

Well located close to city centre for shops bars and restaurants.
Very impressed and I would certainly recommend this hotel.'

'We had a great stay at Greyfriars House. The romm was very clean and comfortable.
The only downside that we found was the breakfast, it would have been nice to have a choice of continental or cooked but that did not stop up enjoying our stay and we would definately stay there again without doubt. The owner was friendly and welcoming and very helpful.'

'A friendly welcome, for our one night stay here. We had the first floor room facing the street and owner gave a warning that there might be some noise from a club further down on the opposite side. But the triple glassing helped a lot and it was ok. Good location,nice building and if you are not looking for luxury this is a perfectly adequate place to stay.'

'Right in town and on a noisy street, an historic building with friendly and helpful staff. Very cold the night of my visit and was quickly offered a change of room when the radiator did not work. Noisy plumbing! But clean and comfy. If you like quaint then go for it, but if you are used to mod cons you will be disappointed.'

'Second time I have stayed at this hotel - room was comfortable, clean and the staff were friendly. Lots of choices for breakfast too and so convenient for the Cathedral were I was doing some research. Both occasions I have never slept so well better than being in my own bed! Thank you.'

'We were not warned about the nearby disco when we made our booking.
However, by shutting the double glazing and using earplugs it was not a great issue. It could be in the summer.
We had a minor complaint - no soap dish in the shower (Room 9).
Generally an excellent stay : very friendly.'

'We loved the location of Greyfriars. It was so easy to find a good restaurant on High St. Walking the ancient streets around the cathedral was delightful. Our host was very lively. Warm welcome and helpful with directions and questions. It was so beautiful to walk across the river Stour in our own back garden area.'

'I always look for unfussy accommodation in the centre of the town I\'m visiting - in this case, close to the theatre. The advantages at night are obvious: plenty of people around, plenty of light. The disadvantages are potential noise. Greyfriars deals with this by supplying earplugs and double glazing (but you can\'t expect to shut it all out). Other pluses are the friendly staff, and excellent continental breakfast (I\'d suggest adding a bowl of hard-boiled eggs, as they do in Europe, for those who like a savoury breakfast). My room was small, but the bed was large and comfortable and the tiny bathroom worked perfectly. I\'d suggest a refurb of the stairs as a way of welcoming visitors - worn stair carpet is depressing and potentially dangerous; also the scuffed handrail needs painting. Eventually replacing the dark wooden furniture in the room with a modern unit will make it look lighter and more spacious - could even fit a chair! Free wifi worked well. The breakfast/sitting-room is comfortable and light and the garden is a \'must see\', even in winter: the river and ruins are a glorious surprise.'

'Great location, close to centre. If you want a peaceful nights sleep, be prepared, it\'s noisy due to outside partying. But it didn\'t put me off!
Breakfast was good, plenty of choice but not cooked. Not a problem for me.'

“Quirky comfortable affordable ”4

'Brilliant location, was warned about noise of local clubs. However the lady who showed us to the room told us there were ear plugs and we used them. We slept like a dream, the beds were super comfy and the room was very clean. The decor is a little tired but for the price and location I have no complaints. Would recommend this hotel to friends in a second.'

'The only let down for our one nights stay here was the very small en-suite which lacked places to put shower gel etc. On the plus side the breakfast could not have had a bigger choice for a continental breakfast. The staff were pleasant and helpful and the premises are very handy indeed for the City centre.'

'Nice hotel in the center of Canterbury. The family rooms are quite spacy, quiet and comfortable. The staff is very welcoming. Good value for money.'

“centrallyl situated and kindly stuff”4

'The Lodge is right in the middle of center. Short food walk to Cathedral and other sight seeing points.
The small street in front is unfortunately busy in the morning for loading and unloading, but free Oropax help :)
The bathroom was a bit small, but clean.
The Breakfast is good for starting the day.
All in all, nice Logde. Would recommend this to my friends.

'Got back to the hotel late and was pleased to find someone was waiting up to let us in. But the room was so unbearably hot, I got hardly any sleep. I had other family staying in the hotel and they all said the same about the room'

'A good location within the city. Staff were friendly and helpful. The décor and facilities could do with an up-grade. The room was fine but the shower room was very small with hardly room to turn round. If you don\'t get to breakfast early you may have to wait if the hotel is busy. It can be noisy late at night and early morning due to activity in the street outside. The Friary garden outside the back door is beautiful and worth looking round.'

'Excellent staff, good location if very noisy.
Very misleading pictures. We discussed leaving straight away although did\'nt. Very much in need of upgrade. Would be fine if sold for what it is.'

“Go for it !”5

'This was my second stay, this time with my daughter. As before, excellent reception by staff. Breakfast on offer lacked for nothing,wide choice, with something there for everybody, from Porridge /cereals/yoghurt/cheese/ham croissant etc. You would have to be very difficult not to find something that appealed.
Stay was mid-week but no noise from street outside - we were on the ground floor. Room was fine, with all that one could ask.
Excellent location, and the parking arrangement for £6.00 was useful too.
No hesitation about recommending Greyfriars.
Will be booking again for the end of the year!'

'Room was nice and clean, bathroom was ok, although shower was a tad on the tight fit side. Staff were incredibly wonderful. Friendly on arrival, helpful and lovely to talk to. We were just off the high street, so everything was very close. we would definitely return here again'

'Enjoyed my stay, although the room we had was on the ground floor at the front of the building right on the road, unfortunately a hotel has opened on the other side of the road and the deliveries are early morning an daily, not anyones fault just an observation.
Otherwise had a really great time.'

'Ideally located right in the city centre. Very friendly staff - it was no problem to drop off my suitcase when I arrived in the morning, even though the room wasn\'t ready. Nice continental breakfast.
As even in much more expensive hotels, the free WiFi isn\'t the fastest. But you don\'t go to Canterbury to surf the net!'

'We stayed for one night and received excellent friendly service. The location is perfect for visiting the city. Car parking isn\'t on site but only a walk away. The beds were great and the breakfast varied and satisfying. Ideal for a short stay.
The fabric of parts of the building and the shower quality prevent this being five star. Despite this, we would recommend Greyfriars Lodge as a good place to stay'

'Donna and her colleagues could not have been more helpful and pleasant. They truly wanted us to have a great stay. Keeping the front door locked added to security. Lack of air conditioning would keep this from being five stars, but that would be no problem most of the year. I would certainly stay there again.'

“Staying at Greyfiars House”4

'I had a very comfortable night at Greyfriars House. The room was very spacious, yet cosy.
There was lots of hot water in the morning, and for breakfast, a wide selection of cereals, breads and drinks to choose from. The staff were helpful and friendly. The only disadvantage is the parking situation as the nearest car park is a 7-8 minute walk away. Otherwise, everything was great - Thank you.'

'Our stay there although short, was fantastic. The place was homely and I slept like a baby. Our every need was met, and it gave us a lot to write home about.
I will not hesitate recommending it to my friends and family. The member of staff who let us in was equally pleasant and very easy to talk to.
I will definitely stay there again!'

'Greyfriars house was a quaint house with nice rooms. Breakfast was self-service and plentiful. It was very well situated for the town centre and everything was tidy and clean. It would have been nice to have had shampoo etc in the bathroom.'

'I stayed at Greyfriars with my mum for just one night.We had a twin room which was very shabby,and poorly decorated and furnished. There was just one power point with an extension lead attached, which meant the kettle(which could not be filled in the sink as it wouldn\'t fit under the taps!) had to be moved and placed on the floor to boil - not very safe or convenient. There were no headboards on the beds and the sheets didn\'t fit well so they came untucked during the night.The ensuite was cupboard sized and the shower was the worst I have ever experienced - it was impossible to wash as the water trickled out at a very slow pace. This definitely needs a pump!The B and B is situated opposite a very noisy bar/restaurant which played loud music until 2am, followed by another hour of noise from people leaving the bar and standing and chatting. The breakfast was good with plenty of choice and the staff were very friendly.'

'Friendly staff, basic rooms but not a basic price at £75 per night for bed & continental breakfast. Noisy in the evenings from outside nightlife but this was mentioned at time of booking and earplugs were provided..nice touch. Bedroom and shower room clean and tidy with tea tray fully stocked.'

'Right in the heart of Canterbury. Good size room, however, the bathroom was cold( no heating in it) Lots of choice for a continental self service breakfast. friendly, helpful staff.'

“A fine place to stay”5

'Reasonably priced, clean, fresh smelling sheets, good mattresses. The outside street can be noisy late on Fridays and Saturdays, but otherwise the location is excellent. The car park is a bit of a trek, especially in bad weather. Cold buffet breakfast adequate, would like a least a boiled egg on offer. I\'ll use it again, there is a 4 bed family room which is ideal for a teen trip or a budget conscious family. Very helpful and friendly staff. The 5 star rating is an holistic assessment, not a luxury based one. It is excellent at what it does and for what it offers.'

“Becket commemoration”5

'We came to Canterbury for 48h, to see friends, to do some shopping and especially to be present at the Cathedral for the feast of St Thomas à Becket, 29th December. The hôtel was excellently situated for all of this, the welcome was sincere, friendly, complete; rooms were clean and equipped with the necessaries for the stay. All the staff were pleasing and welcoming as well as professionally efficient.'

'Booked the quadruple room for four lads. Nice old building. Welcoming and helpful staff. Good room size and amenities. Good continental breakfast selection. Above all were the excellent beds - akin to being swallowed by a pillow monster, yet allowing just the right amount of cool so as not to be stiflingly hot. Would go there again.'

'The location and hotel are great.
On saturday-night I had to sleep with earplugs in because there is a danceclub nearby, first the receptionist didn\'t seem much understanding, but after a while they understood why we thought they should have mentioned it on their website. The noise-problem was only saturday night.'

'Fantastic location, so close to the city centre. Friendly staff and comfortable room. Parking concession really helpful.'

“Great”4

'My mum and I shared a twin room when visiting my sister. We had the only ground floor room which was nicely decorated with an en suite bathroom. The beds were very comfortable with warm luxurious bedding. There were tea and coffee making facilities in the room, a freeview tv with DVD player. The free wifi was good. The only negative was that it was a little loud in the evening/ early hours as we went on a Saturday night, and it is opposite a pub/restaurant, but this is to be expected if you stay in the city centre, and greyfriars is a great location. This didn\'t really affect as though, as we were so tired.
Breakfast spread the next morning was fantastic. So much choice: bagels, breads, brioche, croissants, muffins, branded individual cereal and porridge boxes, cereal bars, fresh fruit and toast. Would definitely stay here again. Donna the manager was really helpful too.'

'Friendly, helpful staff. Nothing was too much trouble, breakfast was lovely and filling - made a nice change from a cooked breakfast. Room was clean, fresh and warm enough. Location excellent. Only negative point was, we were in the ground floor bedroom next to the front door facing the street. Once woken up at 4.30 am we didn\'t get back to a sound, peaceful sleep. Which in fairness couldn\'t be helped.'

'A lovely hotel with lots of character
Right in the centre - 2 mins to the high street.
Great service; very friendly and helpful.
Warm, clean room with comfortable beds and a very nice breakfast.
Parking is available nearby and is arranged through the hotel.'

'We booked this hotel for a short break and choose it for its location which is indeed very central ideal for sightseeing and accessing restaurants however be aware that you also hear some noise at night. The staff were very helpful and friendly and the continental breakfast was lovely. Although the facilities were adequate and clean, the hotel was tired and in need of TLC.'

Comfortable room and 24 hour access (perfect to drop off a load of shopping and have a cup of tea before going back for more). Car park is a 5-10 min walk away but you can drive to the door to drop-off/pick-up luggage. Will definitely be back.'

'Right next to the pedestrianised high street, adjacent to the Abode Hotel with its Country Restaurant and walking distance of all the venues you could wish for.
Parking a good ten minute walk, but drop off and then park is the best option.
Basic clean and tidy accommodation,mould stay again.'

“Fantastically friendly & helpful staff; central location”5

'Small & very handy for places of interest. Room clean & beds comfy. Hotel quirky - oozing with character. Staff could not have been more friendly & helpful. Due to its location, parking not possible, but we were able to unload cases outside & then were given tickets to a carpark 3 or 4 minutes walk away. Definitely go back for another one or two night stay.'

'The stay in Greyfriars was very nice,warm and friendly.The single room I had, was big enough,the bathroom facilities worked very well.Breakfast is very rich and you can have a real coffee there, in french press.I would recommend Greyfriars to my friends who travel alone and need to stay in Canterbury for 1 or 2 nights'

'We spent 3 nights in this centric B&B and I strongly recommend it. The hotel is easy to find and well located (just 12 minutes walking from the train station and very close to the Cathedral and the main streets of the city). The staff was very friendly and welcoming. The room was clean and spacious. I have to highlight the breakfast with a complete offer of fresh products (such us fruit and yogurts) all of them in a serve-yourself affair. Finally, note that the staff alerted us about the noise at night that could be quite loud when the drunken revellers are falling out of the near bars (it was the Student Week!), but it didn’t actually trouble us.'

'We were 2 older Danish men visiting Canterbury for just 1 night. Our rooms were fine and spacy. The Wi-fi was fine. We were recieved in a very friendly way and we enjoyed the fine breackfast. The only problem was a fight outside the hotel at 4am. But having chosen a hotel situated in the middle of town a thing like this might happen. The hotel was sure not to blame. All in all an exellent experience.'

'My short stay at Greyfriars House was a pleasure. Although quite modest, i found everything to be very clean and cheerful. As an ancient building it had the inconvenience of lack of facilities for the less abled and this should be taken into consideration by the elderly, but, for now, I was alright and would like to return for a longer visit. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The location is excellent.'

'My husband and my two kids stayed at the Greyfriars only for one night, but we really enjoyed it. The room was spacious and clean, the staff very kind and helpful. The only problem we had was the shower that did't work; i'm sure they would have fixed it immediately if only we had told them.'

“Farther & Son”4

'A very warm welcome, by all and very helpful. A clean room, with all that was needed for a one night stay. Cannot say how the breakfast was, as my son whated to sleep in! Although, was asked if we wished to take something away, which I thought was nice. Only downside was the toilet! It would wake anyone if go during the night! So don't put the seat down till the morning, which was fine. I would definitely come back and will look fordward to it. Same about the cricket ha ha!'

'The property couldn't be better placed for everything in the town centre. My elderly father is unable to walk too far so this was ideally placed for us as was the groundfloor room my parents stayed in. The only downside being the night club a few doors up which created some noise. Overall though it value wise it is excellent and I would definitely stay again.'

'Greyfriars Lodge is conveniently placed to tour Canterbury,with the river Stour right behind,leading to the Greyfriars Garden. The staff members were really lovely, beds comfortable, and breakfast more than adequate.
I would recommend asking for ground floor or first floor rooms in summer, as the third floor was incredibly hot in July. The stairs are steep, and this heritage building has no elevator, so it is not suitable for the physically challenged. Parking is 10 minutes' walk away and cost 6 pounds for 24 hours.'

'Canterbury is a great place to visit for the weekend. Lovely historical town with good shopping , plenty of places to eat and drink and a modern theatre.
Greyfiars B and B was a lovely place to stay and in a fantastic location. We were all looked after very well from the moment we arrived until leaving. The clean accommodation and the friendly staff made for a great visit. Good value for money and would definitely come back.'

'Character accommodation in an historic town.not good for car parking but the Lodge made the best of things by providing a discounted ticket for Council car parks.
Smallish rooms but quite adequate for purpose.'

'I stayed at Greyfriars House with two friends. We found our stay very relaxing. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The rooms were very clean and comfortable and the breakfast was great - help yourself and eat as much as you like !! Suits me very well! We will be staying there again.'

'For the price we paid and the superb location of this guest house and for 1 night it was great, very warm welcome at 11.30pm! We would stay again even though it could do with a bit of a tart up!'

“An enjoyable stay”4

'Our reception from Donna was very friendly and helpful. The bedroom was ready early. It was clean and tidy. Up 3 short flights of steep steps as it is a heritage building dating back to the13th century (we were in the 18th century extension I believe). the location was great right near the medieval heart of the city, shops restaurants and all the historic sights. The breakfast was well presented and had a good selection . The only downside was the ensuite in need of retiling and the shower pressure was disappointing. The bar/ restaurant across the road where we enjoyed a lovely dinner got noisy in the wee small hours of Sat. but that's expected when you are in the middle of town.'
